Stories of Hospitality: Tasty44
A Syrian kitchen in Richmond, run by a chef who never stopped cooking for people.
Chef Khaled Azzam brought his craft from Syria to Melbourne and built Tasty 44 around the food he grew up with. The shawarma, the fattih, the kibbeh, the family platters that land on the table and turn a meal into an occasion. In this episode, he talks about the journey, the family behind the kitchen, and what hospitality has meant to him, in conversation with Mark Khoder.
Spoken in Arabic, with English subtitles.
Produced as part of the Stories of Hospitality series by Your SocialChef, sharing the real people and stories behind the venues we love.
